The regular weekly board of directors meeting of the Alanya Tourist Operators Association (ALTİD) was held at the Rubi Platinum Hotel under the chairmanship of Burhan Sili. At the meeting, the "Kuwait Fam Trip Program," carried out with the support of the Ministry of Culture and Tourism and the Western Mediterranean Development Agency (BAKA), constituted one of the significant agenda items. Within the scope of the program, which aims to attract high-income holidaymakers to the Mediterranean basin, it was discussed to bring important travel agency and tour operator officials from Kuwait to Alanya for an overnight stay so that Alanya can take its fair share. In this context, the delegation, which is expected to be in Alanya on May 25, will have the opportunity to examine touristic facilities while getting to know the historical and natural beauties of Alanya together with the ALTİD management. Emphasizing that different markets must be entered so that Alanya's tourism professionals and tradespeople can appeal to high-income holidaymakers, ALTİD President Sili stated, "By achieving success in BAKA's projects to diversify Alanya tourism, we are bringing national resources to Alanya. With the 'BAKA Kuwait Fam Trip Program,' we aim to bring high-income Arab tourists who prefer long-term holidays to the region."
